    Default The wet shave club. Has anyone joined?

    Hello Gentlemen,
    I didn't know where to place this post so excuse me if I've made a mistake. I've seen the Wet Shave Club link pop up here from time to time and just curious if any members have joined and how they like or dislike it. It would be nice to have new and untried products delivered to your door. Especially if your a newbie like me and still exploring. Thanks.

    I don't even see the ads anymore. Had to google it. I did not see too many soaps in there that I am familiar with. It is a curiosity though. I am going to look a little closer.

    Not seen it even though I have pop up ads.............I just tune them out mentally and really pay them no attention. I will take a look at them.

    I'm kind of surprised more people aren't familiar with it. I will post the link in case anyone wants to check it out. Wet Shave Club

    I suppose short term it might help you to get a range of products but over the course of a year (based on the mid point of the $25-35 average) you could get a few really nice products, or an awful lot of samples/ mid price products.
    I am not arguing either way, I don't think it is a bad thing.

    I think maybe you haven't heard anything about it is because most members here don't see a need to pay a monthly fee (which auto-renews) in the 25-35 dollar range, to get shaving products shipped to us that've know nothing about except that they get picked for us.

    Yes we certainly have our favorites. I have mine for sure. I am not opposed to looking at new businesses that carry shaving items. But once I find a place I like I usually stick with them. Guess I am an old loyal dog!

    Yes Harold, I understand the monthly fee. I understand stand it renews itself for the amount of time you sign up for before you place your first order. I know the price range. Sounds like a old dog like you has been around and knows exactly what he wants and cares not to try new things or have the shaving Santa knock on his door once a month. That's fine. For someone that is new to the hobby of the fine art of shaving and doesn't mind being exposed to products unknown to him, wants to build up his arsenal and possibly discover something he likes but may have never tried otherwise, it might be a good thing. Along with doing one's own footwork and finding out what other members in the forum have used and like, he can learn and make decisions as time goes on.
